Using the word sivilized demonstrates the use of colloquial diction. It would not be denotative, due to the way the author chose to spell it. The strategy was effective because it shows the reader Huck's character and how he is the opposite of civilized since he wasn’t able to spell it correctly, therefore showing he is not educated. A civilized person wouldn’t spell the word wrong, which also shows how much Huck does not care about it. This relates to the purpose because the society in this novel is portrayed as being civilized and superior, which can be seen when they follow a set of rules and tell each other what is wrong and what is right. Judging by how they are civilized, it seems as if they do not have freedom as well, even though they are white. It is the complete opposite of freedom because Huck is being controlled by the arrogant white society that sees themselves as righteous and as if they are above the slaves. Huck takes notice of that and doesn’t want to be associated with being “sivilized” and his choice of spelling shows how he is
